This guide covers both the in-app change (when you remember the current password) and the forgot-password reset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"in-this-article\">In this article<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"#open\">Where to change your password<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#change\">Change your password (signed in)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#forgot\">Forgot password reset<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#tips\">Choosing a strong password<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#faqs\">FAQs<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"open\">Where to change your password<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Sign in to Tutorac.<\/li><li>Click your <strong>avatar<\/strong> in the top right.<\/li><li>Choose <strong>My Profile<\/strong>.<\/li><li>In the left sidebar, click <strong>CHANGE PASSWORD<\/strong> (URL: <code>\/student\/profile\/change-password<\/code>).<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1436\" height=\"719\" src=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/help-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ap-change-password.png\" alt=\"Tutorac Change Password page with Current, New, and Confirm Password fields.\" class=\"wp-image-140\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"change\">Change your password (signed in)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Enter your <strong>Current Password<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Enter a <strong>New Password<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Re-enter it in <strong>Confirm Password<\/strong> &mdash; the two must match.<\/li><li>Click <strong>Update<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A confirmation message appears once the change is saved. Your new password takes effect immediately &mdash; the next time you sign in (or are signed out for any reason), use the new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"forgot\">Forgot password reset<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you can&rsquo;t sign in because you don&rsquo;t remember the current password, use the forgot-password flow instead:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/forgot-password\"><code>tutorac.com\/forgot-password<\/code><\/a>.<\/li><li>Enter the email address registered on your Tutorac account.<\/li><li>Submit and check your inbox for a reset email from Tutorac.<\/li><li>Click the reset link in the email. It opens a secure page where you set a new password.<\/li><li>Set and confirm the new password, then sign in.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reset links typically expire after a short time for security. If yours expires, just submit the forgot-password form again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tips\">Choosing a strong password<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>At least <strong>10 characters<\/strong>, longer is better.<\/li><li>Mix of uppercase, lowercase, digits, and at least one symbol.<\/li><li>Don&rsquo;t reuse passwords from other sites &mdash; if those sites are breached, your Tutorac account is exposed too.<\/li><li>Avoid obvious patterns like <code>Password@123<\/code>, your name, or your birthdate.<\/li><li>Use a password manager (1Password, Bitwarden, your browser&rsquo;s built-in one, etc.) to generate and store a unique password.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will changing my password sign me out of other devices?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes &mdash; you&rsquo;ll generally need to re-sign-in everywhere with the new password. This is a good thing if you suspect unauthorised access: it forces the intruder out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I signed up with Google \/ LinkedIn &mdash; do I have a Tutorac password?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you only used Google or LinkedIn sign-in, you don&rsquo;t have a separate Tutorac password &mdash; your authentication runs through that provider. To &ldquo;change&rdquo; security, change the password on your Google or LinkedIn account. If you want a Tutorac password too, use the forgot-password flow to set one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The reset email isn&rsquo;t arriving. What now?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check your spam \/ promotions folder. Confirm the email you entered matches the one registered on your account. Add <code>no-reply@tutorac.com<\/code> to your safe senders. If it still doesn&rsquo;t arrive after 10 minutes, contact Tutorac Support with the email address you used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I reuse an old password?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technically you can if the platform doesn&rsquo;t block it, but you shouldn&rsquo;t. The whole point of changing is to land on a password that isn&rsquo;t already compromised &mdash; reusing defeats that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Tutorac store my password in plain text?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Passwords are hashed before storage. Tutorac staff cannot see your actual password &mdash; not even when helping with account issues. If someone asks you for your password via email or chat, it&rsquo;s phishing; report it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How often should I change my password?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whenever you have reason to think it&rsquo;s been exposed, or after a known breach of a site where you used a similar password. Calendar-based rotation (every 90 days etc.) isn&rsquo;t necessary if your password is already strong and unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"\/help-center\/2026\/05\/29\/how-to-update-your-basic-information-on-tutorac-2\/\">How to update your Basic Information on Tutorac<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"\/help-center\/2026\/05\/29\/how-to-set-your-career-level-on-tutorac\/\">How to set your Career Level on Tutorac<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"\/help-center\/2026\/05\/29\/how-to-set-your-learning-interests-on-tutorac\/\">How to set your Learning Interests on Tutorac<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#9ca3af;font-size:13px\">Last updated: 29 May 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Change your Tutorac password from Profile \u2192 Change Password (Current + New + Confirm) or use the forgot-password reset flow if you can&#8217;t sign in.
